“Real cream of the crop is going to be on day two” - NFL analyst reveals league-wide perception of 2025 NFL Draft class

The 2025 NFL draft is going to be a place where teams are looking to bolster their roster with young talent. While some drafts are top-heavy, it appears that this year's draft class has a lot of talent throughout the first few rounds for teams to select.

While appearing on the "NFL on FOX Podcast" with Dave Helmen, FOX Sports NFL Draft analyst Rob Rang discussed how there is a lot of talent that will be taken throughout the second day of the draft this year.

“The real cream of the crop is going to be on day two. There is not much difference between the players in terms of just pure talent in the player that is going to be selected, say, 20, and the player is going to be selected at 100. So that, to me, is where I think you're going to see a lot of teams want those selections. Sure, you'd want to have the Giants give up everything if you are the Tennessee Titans, but at the same time, as long as you get some of those selections on day two, that is going to be the more cost-effective and the more talent efficient route.”
